Map of Area


Inspired by a cache we did in England by Simply Paul called THE CACHE OF WHICH WE DO NOT SPEAK, this cache will require some research before you grab your caching bag and head for the hills.

On the day we placed this cache the page select button on our GPS was stuck, but luckily we could still read the nearest waypoint screen.

  • The screen displayed the following nearest waypoints:-
  • What is on the Menu? by Navigull is at S36° 54.557 E174° 27.578 and was 2886 metres away
  • Saddle Dam by ags is at S 36° 53.998 E 174° 31.534 and was 3312 metres away

  • Kayla's Cache by Navigull is at S 36° 56.559 E 174° 28.540 and was 3649 metres away

Can you work out where the cache is?.

* Thanks to Navigull and Ags for placing these fine caches.

If you have worked it out correctly the whole walk will take you 2 hours and can be slippery if its been raining. The cache is near some large drops, there is no need to risk your life. The cache is not on the cliff side!!!!.
